YEAKS ago we had negro slavery in this country,but we were freed from that, a Later we have had slavery to political parties, that is, men who were the abject -^'followers of party no matter what they .'•did, men who obeyed the dictates of po liticnl leaders under all circumstances, but that kind of slavery is also passu .away. Men are now doing some thinking for themselves, and acting according.
We are ibus led to expect an era of bet*'«ter things. Party allegiance now rests light upon the shoulders of voters who think for themselves, and that hern'rls the coming of a brighter day when the •-Tights of the people *1IH11 pievail. With ^indeoeiideiit voting will come honest action hy Legislatures an" Congress. 1m 1892 the Democrats went 11 uitli a whirl ar.d in 1 .S!)4 the Republicans swept everything hefo them and now uvhat they shonlri do in both Congress and the

DINNERS IN FRISCO.
CURIOUS COSMOPOLITAN RESTAURANTS ON THE COAST.
One May Dine In the Manner of a Different Country Every Night In the Week. A Dirty Italian Restaurant on the Water
Front That Is Very Popular. 1 {'-J
One of the features of cosmopolitan Ban Francisco is its restaurants. Every foreign colony boasts of a place where its native "an be had, and adventuro- iscaus who care to look /S tip can dine in the mam. 01 afferent country every night in tho week. If an elaborate Chinese dinner, with its numberless impossible courses, each accompanied by sweetmeats, proves unattractive, a Hawaiian dinner, with poi and salted fish, can be had by walking a few blocks. For those who like highly spiced dinners there are the Italian and Spanish restaurants to choose from, and for those with small appetites, who look for novelty in service, there are the Turkish I restaurants, with their unpronounceable dishes and delicious coffee.
The most popular of the foreign restaurants are the Italian. There are several of these scattered about the Latin quarter, which are much frequented by San Franciscans on account of the excc 1lence of the cooking. Most of them are dirty, very dirty, as to floors and walls, and the Italians are nOT oversqueamisli regarding the table linen. When a party of Americans enter, however, there is a general shuffle among the waiters to secure the service of the table and the prospective tip. The question of precedence being settled, the wine 6tained tablecloth is whisked off and replaced by one not always newly laundered or else suspiciously damp.
These restaurants are rarely on the main streets and have to be approached through dark alleys. One situated behind the county jail occupies the back room of a small Italian grocery store. In going there one is reminded of dark deeds and sharp stilettos, but the dinner is worth the journey. The chef of this place is famous for cooking 'Italiarini," a paste made by himself and cut in strips and cooked with a sauce made of tomatoes, spices and mushrooms. It is extremely rioh and very peppery, but all Italian dishes are strongly dashed •with chili peppers.
The dinner is attended with great ceremony. A bottle of their sour claret is served with each dinner. Every Italian drinks about two quarts of it with his dinner, so the bottle supply sometimes runs short. In this event the waiter goes to the bar, fillls an empty bottle from a demijohn, drives in a cork, and then carries the bottle to the table where it is needed, sometimes four feet from the bar, and impressively producing his corkscrew draws the cork as carefully as though he were handling the finest burgundy. His demeanor is so serious throughout the performance that one dare not look amused.
A very popular restaurant is Bazzuro's, which is situated near the water front. This is greatly patronized by tho Italian fishermen, who file in after their day's work, still wearing their gum boots and smelling strongly of their craft. It is also frequented by the Italian vegetable gardeners, who drive in from the outskirts of town, and after disposing of their stock stop to dine. When the place is reasonably well filled, thero is a babel of voices. They are all talking at once, and out of the confusion the word "scudi" is distinguished above all others.
This means money, which the proprietor says, with a shrug, "they talk about all the time, all the time." The fishermen bring the best of their day's catch here, and the gardeners offer their choicest vegetables. The chef, whose kitchen is back of the dining tables and in full view of the room, is a merry fellow, and between his juggling feats, tossing his pan into the air to turn the cooking fish or meat exchanges gossip and jests with the diners. This place is kept comparatively clean. The floor is oovered with sawdust and the oeiling festooned with gaudy colored paper cut in fanciful designs. Two parrots add to the general din, and all sorts and conditions of cats prowl around the floor.
The restaurant is conducted by two brothers, one of whom waits on table, while the other attends bar and looks after the cash receipts. Every Italian after dining stops at the bar for a chat and a drink. Instead of a liquor, the host pours generous glasses of claret for himself and his guests, and these are speedily tossed off. A casual visitor, after witnessing this ceremony about 25 times in quick succession, is apt to grow nervous about the health of the host, but he appears none the worse for his conviviality at the end of the evening. The younger brother sometimes relieves his brother at the bar. He is quite as hospitable, and his invariable drink being absinthe and seltzer his case 6eems even more alarming, i'l
This restaurant, at 7:80 in the evening, when dinner is in full swing, presents an odd sight, the Italians sitting around the tables, most of them with their hats on, gesticulating and talking excitedly across the room, while they roll the spaghetti round their forks and dexterously transfer it in yard lengths to their moutha A butcher, with all the marks of his trade about him, occupies a table with the policeman on the beat, who gets the best service of all a few men about town, who have heard of the ohef's fame, and forget the unsavory looking company in their enjoyment of the plates, and Often a table or two taken by young society girls with their chaperon and escorts. The girls consider a dinner at Bazzuro's a tremendous lark.
Tho Americans do not venture on the claret so generously served with the dinner. A flask of Chianti is ordered in its stead, and the proprietor always proffers the empty flask to tho youngest member of the party as a souvenir. —"San Francisco Letter. f\t,: I1-

Stanbaugh stated that Graybeal deliberately plotted to kill the children of Efiie Austin, the purpose being to drive the mother insane. and thus destroy the value of her testimony, wrhich is a strong point in the prosecution.
